★★★★★ 5.0 Fancy Spider · Aug 2024

Very nice and quiet campground. Campsites are spaced out enough to were you really won't hear anyone. It's a bit of walk to get in but most people are here for backpacking/hiking in general so you shouldn't be shocked. Vaulted toilets are kept in good condition. Only complaint is that it is pretty pricey ($20/night) especially for what little the site has to offer.

An excellent place to camp and enjoy the out of doors with just a few simple comforts. When you arrive there will be a central notice board with some envelopes for you to slip cash payment into for your night's stay. In order to park your car at the nearby parking lots you will have needed to have purchsed a recreation pass, or you will need to being the additional money to buy a recreation pass. Fill out the form on the envelope to completion, insert your method of payment, and go to your chosen campsite. Site #3 was great, with some partial tree coverage. That helped because when we went in late August it rained quite a bit. The campsites are dirt/sand and there are restrooms nearby the central notice board, along with potable water, as well as a few trash cans. If you are hiking in

★★★★☆ 4.0 Dan Pokriefka · Jun 2023

Nice rustic campground. We backpacked in. Out houses were clean. Had trouble getting the water pump to prime. We were the first to get there and had our pick of the sites. It was quite all day and we were surprised that most of the sites were filled with as quite as it was

Great clean campground secluded from the masses. Perfect location with lots oFB wooded and open sites to choose from. Conveniently located near a river, North Country Trail and a trout farm. Highly recommend. First come first serve.

★★★★★ 5.0 Searra Liggett · Sep 2020

Very beautiful campground! The tent spots were very private and well maintained. The trails were nicely marked and maintained as well. Very rustic, and perfect for our first backpacking trip! Sites are first come first serve and were filled up by 5pm, so plan ahead!
